by fetcher-sh · 8K installs

The skill

Twitter api gives agents read access to Twitter/X data on fetcher.sh: tweet search with advanced operators, profiles, timelines, followers, Lists and trends, with no OAuth or developer app.

Only when you ask.

You don't have to.

Three questionsWhen does it start? How does it check its work? What does it remember?

It starts by itself

daily topic search. Runs in Claude Code routine or cron.
